Genes affected
TNNI3 (HGNC:11947): (troponin I3, cardiac type) Troponin I (TnI), along with troponin T (TnT) and troponin C (TnC), is one of 3 subunits that form the troponin complex of the thin filaments of striated muscle. TnI is the inhibitory subunit; blocking actin-myosin interactions and thereby mediating striated muscle relaxation. The TnI subfamily contains three genes: TnI-skeletal-fast-twitch, TnI-skeletal-slow-twitch, and TnI-cardiac. This gene encodes the TnI-cardiac protein and is exclusively expressed in cardiac muscle tissues. Mutations in this gene cause familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy type 7 (CMH7) and familial restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM). Troponin I is useful in making a diagnosis of heart failure, and of ischemic heart disease. An elevated level of troponin is also now used as indicator of acute myocardial injury in patients hospitalized with moderate/severe Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Such elevation has also been associated with higher risk of mortality in cardiovascular disease patients hospitalized due to COVID-19. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]

Likely benign, no assertion criteria providedprovider interpretationStanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease, Stanford UniversitySep 06, 2017p.Arg79Cys (c.235C>T) in the TNNI3 gene. Given the frequency (0.1%) in Asian individuals unselected for HCM and the failure to segregate, we consider this variant likely benign, with potential to be a modifier. The variant has been seen in at least 6 unrelated cases of HCM (not including this patient's family). The p.Arg79Cys variant in TNNI3 was first reported by Kimura et al (1997) as a polymorphism in five unrelated patients with HCM and in healthy control individuals (detailed control data not provided). This cohort is likely of East Asian descent as the study was conducted in Japan. It was also noted the p.Arg79Cys variant did not segregate with cardiomyopathy in these five families. Subsequently, Mogensen et al. (2004) reported the p.Arg79Cys variant in an individual of Asian decent with HCM and considered it a polymorphism based on the previous report by Kimura et al. Segregation analysis was not performed in this family. In silico analysis with PolyPhen-2 predicts the variant to be probably damaging to the protein structure/function and mutationtaster predicts it to be disease-causing. The p.Arg79Cys variant at codon 79 is conserved across mammals, but not in x tropicalis (western clawed frog). Other variants have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with disease at nearby codons (p.Arg74Pro, p.Pro82Ser) in association with cardiomyopathy (Stenson et al., 2009). In total the variant has been seen in 50 of ~53,696 published controls and individuals from publicly available population datasets. This variant is listed in dbSNP and 1000 genomes (rs3729712, as of 01/21/2015). The variant was observed in the following published control samples: Murakami et al. (2010) reported the p.Arg79Cys variant in 2 controls in a cohort that is likely of Asian ancestry. Kapplinger et al. (2014) also reported the variant in 2 individuals of a control cohort of 427 individuals of various ethnic backgrounds. The variant was reported online in 46 of 53,269 individuals in the Exome Aggregation Consortium dataset (http//exac.broadinstitute.org/), which currently includes variant calls on ~64,000 individuals of European, African, Latino and Asian descent (as of 01/21/2015). Specifically, the variant was observed in 43 of 4026 individuals (0.1%) of the East Asian ancestry. The phenotype of those individuals is not publicly available. The dataset is comprised of multiple cohorts, some of which were recruited from the general population, others were enriched for common cardiovascular disease. -

Dilated cardiomyopathy 2A Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
